£3,000.00 :o

I saw a guy yesterday pull up on some sports bike and go in the co-op in front of me. He bought a Ginsters, some chocolate and coke and sat out in the sun next to his bike eating his lunch. I thought "how cool is that" the freedom etc etc......

I then got back in the car, and went home to the decorating :roll: :(

Often fancied a Suzuki Bandit type thing myself but would be sooooooo Ostrich-sized by my family due to a Paralysis in the family years ago envolving a bike......

yep last night, when he came in he was like a 5yr old again,saying "i pulled away normally in 1st up into 2nd wound the power on into 3rd, glanced down noticed my speedo was dropping down from about 60 down to 30,so i thought great weve got a dodgy speedo :cry: kept the power on thinking woohoo,then felt the front end lower abit and the speedo shot round to 90 :shock: :shock: " He reports at that point his knees started trembling so he had to stop and have a smoke to calm his nerves :lol: :lol:
